Sun in Capricorn, Moon in Sagittarius

This astrological combination is not entirely harmonious, but the steadying influence of
Capricorn will mitigate the reckless and impulsive tendencies of Sagittarius.

You are outspoken in your opinions and like to tell others about what you have learned. You also
have decided business and financial ability. Your uppermost aim is to achieve integrity, and you
concentrate your energies toward this goal. You have abilities for organizing, conserving, and
retaining, and for using concepts and materials to gain practical ends. Perhaps you intuitively
understand that you are vulnerable, and that helps to develop your self-reliance.

You have a strong sense of reverence and duty. In love you are dependable and able to curb your
recklessness. The key to a more harmonious existence lies in becoming more sociable and learning
to express yourself more effectively.

At the time of your birth the zodiacal sign of Libra was ascending in the horizon. Its ruler
Venus is located in the second house.

This denotes a life in which the native adopts an attitude which is courteous, kind, and
affectionate.

People with Libra Ascendant are basically motivated by feeling and emotion rather than
intellectuality. Your life will demonstrate your keenness of observation, and a tendency to
effect comparisons largely of an aesthetic nature. You will not display too much energy in your
actions and, therefore, there is a tendency toward following routine and the lines of the least
resistance. You are a sympathetic person who seeks the approval of others and is also very
adaptable. Your intuition is remarkable and you derive sensual gratification from engaging in
social intercourse, by loving all social aspects of life.

If you do not control this tendency to be so involved in human relationships, you may become too
attached and over dependent.

Some restlessness, changeability and lack of persistence is noted in your life. Your main feature
is that of constantly favoring the fusing of two things or people together.

Unfortunately, this involvement with harmonizing and adjusting people to one another, tends to
make the native a little unrealistic and lacking in action. You will be, however, easy going and
congenial, socially oriented and preoccupied with adornments, clothing, social conventions,
standards, and aesthetics. In love, if you cause the relationship to be a serious one, you will
find that the affair is the consequence of your own interest in flattering yourself rather than
to satisfy any profound emotion.

Professionally, you will be inclined to activities which require a high degree of culture and
even artistic knowledge.

The fact that your ruler is positioned in this house is an indication of how important earning a
living will be in your life. Because the ruler is Venus, we do not anticipate too much hard work
but rather an easy going life where, though you will be responsible for earning your own money,
it nevertheless will be gained with ease.

You have a marked tendency to deal with things that are either gratifying from a hedonistic view
or pleasing to the senses. Much gain will be forthcoming through social communication and the
general public, and some profitable dealings from friends and influential persons.

Venus in the Second House

Venus is found in the second house at the time of your birth. Intrinsically, this is an ideal
astrological position as it promises easy means of livelihood. Money will stream in regularly
and readily without excessive effort or preoccupation.

Saturn is found in the second house at the time of your birth. This is not a very favorable
astrological circumstance for the general course of financial matters in your life.

It might be difficult to maintain a relatively fair position because of financial losses. You
might also take financial matters too serious, and burden yourself with worries about them.

Your arduous and dedicated work might produce little for you financially, but it does help to
strengthen your self-worth and your appreciation of other values. Therefore, do not be
discouraged. Saturn often grants a fairly normal financial status at an older age if one exerts
oneself in this direction.

If you make an effort to acquire greater enthusiasm in business, coupled with more liberality,
life will change by the same degree.

Sun in the Third House

The Sun appears in the third house at the time of your birth.

Your individuality as ruled by the Sun must pass several karmic tests of a mental character in
order to return to its spiritual abode with a richer knowledge in this state of consciousness.
Your mind strives for glory, social success, honors, power and magnanimous elevation by means of
intellectual understanding.

The path for the realization of fame, honor, nobility and advancement lies through study,
communication and self-expression. Your views about life are optimistic, self-assured, kind and
generous.

The liabilities of your mind are a lack of interest in detail or occupations and matters that you
regard as being below your dignity.

Moon in the Third House

The Moon appears in the third house at the time of your birth. Your intellect is very sensitive
to external events always changing and adjusting to the situation.

Memory is strong and of a pictorial nature. The mind, however, is liable to become too subjective
and shallow with an overemphasis on superficial learning and with little practical use or lacking
in intellectual sensibility. On the favorable side, there exists a vast reservoir of creativity
which could be successfully applied to such pursuits as writing and poetry. Physically, the Moon
will give you an intensely active life full of changes, mobility and fluctuations.

The demands of this position are simple: exert yourself in acquiring better control of your
unstable and persistent imagination, increasing, thereby, powers of concentration and you will
find delightful improvements not only at a mental level, but also in the ability to communicate
with others more realistically.
